cron 50plesk-daily returns code 2?

[theWoosh]

Hi for some time I have received daily emails saying:
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/50plesk-daily exited with return code 2

...does this mean that some part of the daily plesk tasks is returning an error? should I be trying to find out which? and what would be the best way to find out? (and fix it!)

It used to say (up until february):

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
Reopen NGINX log files: ...done.

... and then it started saying:
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/50plesk-daily exited with return code 2
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
Reopen NGINX log files: ...done.

...and then switched (on the 8th March) to the current message...

Anyone have any ideas?

[Interestingly, recently this message (and some others from cron) started being emailed to me twice (a few minutes apart) a couple of days before on the 5th March and have continued that way - weird...]

Well now I have the log - the debugging begins - Here it is (I have removed repeating elements and replaced by '.'s) - any suggestions welcome!

...for the fiirst of them - I can't telnet to catalog.marketplace.parallels.com from the server... I get connection refused (but it does resolve the domain...)

I guess this is the one giving the error though:
...[unixODBC][MySQL][ODBC 5.2(w) Driver]Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

I can't find a mysql.sock file on the machine... (there is a mysqld.sock)
/etc/odbcinst.ini reads:

...and /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libmyodbc5w.so exists...
